Introduction

XR Japan, based in Minato, Tokyo, has made a significant mark in medical education by unveiling a cutting-edge VR endoscopy training system during the Digestive Disease Week (DDW) 2025 held in San Diego, California, from May 3 to 6. With the growing need for effective training for young physicians, this innovative system seeks to bridge the gap in medical education and skill transfer.

New Frontiers in Medical Training

As the medical community faces challenges in cultivating young talent and ensuring the transfer of essential techniques, XR Japan’s VR endoscopy training system has emerged as a solution. Traditional training methods often fall short in accurately reproducing organ movements, but this system excels by creating an immersive virtual environment that allows repetitive learning anywhere, at any time. The launch at DDW 2025 garnered significant interest and praise from countless physicians attending the event.

The VR Endoscopy Training System

At DDW 2025, XR Japan presented its VR endoscopy training system, developed in collaboration with the French company ARM2. This system incorporates specialized endoscopic controllers and pedals, providing a training environment closely resembling actual medical procedures. The ability to replicate realistic organ movements in VR opens up scenarios that conventional model simulators struggle to express, further engaging participants in practical clinical practices.

Obtaining feedback from numerous doctors and educators, many have reported that this system facilitates practical learning closely aligned with real-world clinical scenarios. Responses highlighted the system’s ability to enhance the overall learning process significantly.

Accessibility and Flexibility

One of the most appealing aspects of this training system is its accessibility. It does not require expensive specialized equipment; instead, users can engage with the system using a standard PC, VR headset, and dedicated controllers. With a subscription-based licensing model, the goal is to create a flexible learning environment that allows individuals to learn continuously at their own pace, regardless of location.

Future Prospects

The reception at DDW strongly indicated a demand for continuous training environments in healthcare, with many medical professionals voicing the need for such tools in their practices. There is a notable appreciation for the affordability and practical nature of the VR training, and it is widely considered that tools like this will play an increasingly important role in the future of medical education.
